by: Bradley S. Marino, Katie S. Fine, Julia A. McMillan Amazon.com's Price: $34.95 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description As with most of the blueprints series for clinical rotations, the book for Peds is an excellent source to use early on in the rotation to pump knowledge into your brain. Use this text to weave the fabric connecting the entire rotation. Use UpToDate or big, fat peds texts (Nelsons, Rudolphs) to learn specifics about your patients. And finally use a question book (Appleton and Lange, for example) to prepare for the shelf.  Read Reviews and Description

Not knowing the first thing about psychopathy and the fact that such a committment is indefinate, I searched for guidance; because I did not want to unjustly start this procedure.

It also gave me insight into how psychopaths permiate our capitalistic society and rise to the top unimpeded. ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

"People of the lie" is indeed a dangerous book...but I may be thinking of different reasons than those that Scott Peck had in mind.

He thinks that being evil goes way beyond narcissism personality disorder, or other psychological disorders that psychiatrists ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

I also feel that after reading the book, I have a much better understanding of the fellowships and residencies, as well as how to schedule my rotations for my ...
